…Most amazing people are a tad eccentric or obsessive. A little off-kilter. Driven. Devoted. (Nowhere in the definition of devoted do the words balanced, measured, or normal appear.) Freaky excellent people do not have subtle strengths, they have pronounced talents or proclivities, and they have a rabid dedication, a flaming ardor for what they do so well. They dig it, and they dig it hard. Though unmitigated, unapologetic stupendousness is the exception rather than the norm in our culture, champions of authenticity can be found in every profession or calling. Bakers, daycare teachers, technologists, activists—everyone has some form of genius to rock. And when you’re letting your genius fly, you make it look so natural. Because it is.
